Stool consistency is strongly associated with gut microbiota richness and composition, enterotypes and bacterial growth rates

11 Jun 2015

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The assessment of potentially confounding factors affecting colon microbiota composition is essential to the identification of robust microbiome based disease markers. Here, we investigate the link between gut microbiota variation and stool consistency using Bristol Stool Scale classification, which reflects faecal water content and activity, and is considered a proxy for intestinal colon transit time....
